There is one thing "Sharknado 2" viewers don't have to worry about: watching the first film in the franchise. The actor insisted that those hoping to hop on the B-movie bandwagon with the latest installment should be able to follow along just fine.

"You know what to expect," he said. "It's sharks and tornadoes. It's a similar formula (to 'Sharknado') but a different experience."

And while the risks reported onscreen aren't real, Ziering faced some genuine peril while shooting. It seems his handy chainsaw, which (spoiler alert!) he used to slice and dice sharks last time, actually nicked him during filming.

"Oh, my God! It was a 4-foot timber saw, weighed about 45 pounds, so wielding through that through the air was pretty formidable in itself," the actor said.

Luckily, the saw didn't cause any lingering damage — to him. You'll have to wait and see what it did to the sharks.
